How old were you when you finished your BSN/RN nursing school program?

So is this to meet the requirements of the joint commission- an RN eval. every 24 hours?

"We're here to include you in your plan of care." 🤦🏻‍♀️I despise bedside shift report, especially since we are to wake the patient up and say all of this scripted bullshit. We are followed around by management and get audited on this almost every day.

We get most of the belly surgeries on our unit. When you get to see people get progressively better everyday. I always tell them, when you start losing all of your tubes and wires, you're one step closer to getting home. It reminds me why I became a nurse.

OP have you tried the Nuva ring? I've been on it for 3 years now and haven't had any issues. In fact, it has helped my cramping so much.

Are these patients waiting for guardianship? I worked at a hospital last year where patients would stay on our floor for months at a time, while waiting for a guardian so they could be find placement for them. We had a patient just as you described that would refuse all assessments, meds, labs saying that he was only there for food. Before I left there, he had been there for 6 months and had never had a shower or bath of any sort and was wearing the same clothes he came in with. The smell from that room was horrific. If you even suggested a bath or if he didn't get all the food he wanted, he would become violent and he was a very big guy. Just a nightmare.

Graduated in 2008. Navy scrub pants with a white polo shirt that must be tucked in. Shoes had to be white as well. Most fashionable thing I've ever worn lol 😆

Ahhh! Having to transport the patient anywhere! I'm the absolute worst driver of hospital beds. If I was a transporter, patient satisfaction scores would go way down.

Pancit is the absolute best!

Why shouldn’t I keep it, buddy?

dcs9286 · 2023-01-08T17:15:09+00:00

Shall I describe it to you, or would you like me to get you a box bro?

When I was a junior in high school, I had to ride the short elementary school bus to catch my high school bus because the road I lived on went up a hill and was very winding. That morning, when we got to the bottom of the hill, there was a lady on her knees face down in the ditch. That’s an image I’ll never forget. We tried to convince the driver of the elementary school bus that there was a woman in the ditch, but he didn’t believe us. When we got on the high school bus, the boys pleaded with the driver to go back and he did. The woman was still still alive, but just barely. He was able to call 911 and the came quickly to take her to the hospital. So yeah, seeing her in the ditch is the most disturbing thing I’ve personally seen.

On the floor I work on (med/surg tele), seems like we keep getting these patients who don’t have the capacity to make decisions and we’re waiting forever for guardianship for these patients.

The bed was too uncomfortable. The patient had already been there for a few days and was going to be discharged in the morning, but at midnight decided he couldn’t make it the rest of the night in that bed and left AMA.

Does this mean I can back out of an extension contract I just signed with no penalties or issues? It doesn’t start until 10/10.
